    Installing an optional tray or drawer
    The printer supports two additional input sources: an optional 550-sheet tray and a 650-sheet duo drawer (Tray 2) with
    an integrated multipurpose feeder.
    Note: Some printer models may not support the optional 550-sheet tray.
    CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: The printer weight is greater than 18 kg (40 lb) and requires two or more trained
    personnel to lift it safely.
    CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD: If you are accessing the system board or installing optional hardware or memory
    devices sometime after setting up the printer, then turn the printer off, and unplug the power cord from the wall
    outlet before continuing. If you have any other devices attached to the printer, then turn them off as well, and
    unplug any cables going into the printer.
    1Unpack the optional 550-sheet tray, and then remove all packing material and the dust cover.
    2Place the tray in the location chosen for the printer.
    Note: If you are installing both the optional tray and the 650-sheet duo drawer, the optional 550-sheet tray must
    always be installed as the first tray (configuring from the bottom up).

    							Setting up wireless printing
    Note: A Service Set Identifier (SSID) is a name assigned to a wireless network. Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) and
    Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) are types of security used on a network.
    Information you will need to set up the printer on a wireless network
    Note: Do not connect the installation or network cables until prompted to do so by the setup software.
    SSID—The SSID is also referred to as the network name.
    Wireless Mode (or Network Mode)—The mode will be either infrastructure or ad hoc.
    Channel (for ad hoc networks)—The channel defaults to auto for infrastructure networks.
    Some ad hoc networks will also require the auto setting. Check with your system support person if you are not sure
    which channel to select.
    Security Method—There are three basic options for Security Method:
    –WEP key
    If your network uses more than one WEP key, enter up to four in the provided spaces. Select the key currently
    in use on the network by selecting the Default WEP Transmit Key.
    or
    –WPA or WPA2 passphrase
    WPA includes encryption as an additional layer of security. The choices are AES or TKIP. Encryption must be set
    for the same type on the router and on the printer, or the printer will not be able to communicate on the
    network.
    –No security
    If your wireless network does not use any type of security, then you will not have any security information.
    Note: Using an unsecured wireless network is not recommended.

    Authentication type
    Inner authentication type
    802.1X username and password
    Certificates
